Today, we’re highlighting two new games launching on Stadia in May. For our fans who love engaging puzzle platformers, Lumote: The Mastermote Chronicles (May 1) is a chance to dive into an open world of evolving challenges. For players who prefer a bit more action, Elemental War 2 (May 6) offers a spin on the popular tower defense genre, with powerful items and solo or co-op gameplay.

Read up on the key gameplay details below, and be on the lookout for more about these two titles ahead of their arrival this May.

Lumote: The Mastermote Chronicles
Developer: Luminawesome Games
Publisher: Wired Productions
Release Date: May 1, 2022

Squish, bop and bounce through the Great Depths, an underwater world filled with Motes; bioluminescent creatures who spend their lives deep in the Bioverse, living on the rhythms of an electronica soundscape.

Lumote is a Mote different from others; inquisitive, and with an "eye" on power. When the shift causes the Great Depths to turn red, Lumote sets out on an epic quest to return the world to blue. To do so, Lumote must learn to take control of the Great Depths inhabitants and gain mastery of its puzzles in order to defeat the greatest Mote of them all… the Mastermote!

Features:

  • A Cute Character - Lumote is extremely curious, highly inquisitive and adorable! You might start the game for the puzzles, but you’ll stay for the beyond cute Lumote, who manages to deliver an emotional connection to players through non-verbal expressions!

  • Massive World - The world Lumote lives in is a single, massive environment with numerous puzzles separated into towers. Each tower marks your mastery of a specific Mote and unlocks a new set of puzzles to explore as you descend, heading deeper into the Great Depths. After mastering all the motes from the first world, players will be put to the test in a masterclass, taking control of the Mastermote in a different world!

  • Complex And Evolving Puzzles - Set in a 3D world full of puzzles and adventure, clever and logical level design eases players in the role of Lumote, and its connection with the world, whilst increasing the complexity with each Mote you meet. The entire world and every puzzle are visible at all times.

  • Electronica Sounds - A stunning score accompanies you on a majestical electronica journey, as The Great Depths communicates through music to inform you of key moments and the emotional states of Lumote.

As you journey through The Great Depths, you can look down and see what's left to do and look up and see all the progress you've made soundscape, on one epic journey!

Elemental War 2
Developers: Clockwork Origins
Publisher: Clockwork Origins
Release Date: May 6, 2022

Elemental War 2 takes you into a threatened world: hordes of monsters suddenly pour out of the abysses of hell from a faulty summoned portal. Will you manage to build a defense line of defense towers against the forces of evil in time?

Elemental War 2 offers you the popular tower defense feeling combined with innovative game mechanics: as soon as you defeat an elemental - a particularly strong enemy that will demand everything from you - you'll receive its element stone, which you can use to build new defense towers. As you keep collecting elements, you'll always have new levels and tower combinations at your disposal.

Only if you skillfully combine the different towers and make use of their advantages will you be able to stand up to the monster hordes. Through in-game side quests, you'll also unlock items that further enhance the abilities of your towers or decisively weaken your opponents at just the right time!

Elemental War 2 offers you dozens of hours of gameplay to develop strategies, complete all the quests and discover all the secrets of the game world. The lovingly hand-built maps offer you varied games and always new challenges!

Features:

  • The popular tower defense game principle with new gameplay elements
  • Face the powerful elementals and their special abilities
  • Solve quests to unlock upgrades for your towers
  • Play 11 varied maps in three unique environments: forest, ice and desert
  • Play alone or in co-op mode
  • Compare yourself with other players in the global leaderboards

The fact that stadia dont bring new games like Elden Ring and Hogwarts Legacy its a reason to loose costumers :pensive_face:

These are some interesting games for sure, even if they are not my cup of tea...

I do enjoy the coffee talk though, when it comes to games and the details that go into them like how they are built up and what their gameplay mechanics consist of.

Both seem like the right fit for Stadia and they are sure to find their audience with the Stadians :smiling_face_with_sunglasses::thumbs_up:

Lumote looks like a psychedelic puzzle-solver with heart :slightly_smiling_face: I'm not big on tower defense games, but Elemental War 2 seems just silly enough that I'll get a kick out of it. Keep up the good work!
